 3 To assemble, spread bottom of hamburger bun with about ½ tsp (2mL) Dijon mustard and 2 slices of pickles. Place patty on top, then top with ham, 2 more pickles and Swiss cheese. Spread ½ tsp (2mL) Dijon mustard on top bun, and place over toppings.

 4 Wrap tightly in foil and return to barbeque. Place a very heavy object on top of burgers. Cook 3-5 minutes. Cheese will be bubbly and melted. Carefully remove brick and unwrap. Serve immediately.

Tip(s)

These burgers freeze really well, raw or cooked. To freeze them raw, wrap them individually in plastic wrap and then place in freezer bag. To cook from frozen, lightly oil them and place on hot grill. Add an additional 3-5 minutes cooking time per side.
